Hello!
Today I`d like to show you first batch of photos from 'Penny Dreadful'-inspired photoshoot. The pictures were taken in Primate`s Palace in Skierniewice and the whole event was organized by Sławomir Tomaszkiewicz. In this first part I`ve included photos by Amadeusz Andrzejewski. I`ll show you pictures taken by other photographers in my next post.

The 'Penny Dreadful' series is a late 19th century story devided into 3 seasons. It is about famous characters from gothic novels - for example Doctor Frankenstein, Dorian Gray, Mina Murray-Harker or Professor van Helsing.The series has a very dark atmosphere which is achieved through lightings, colors, victorian interiors and a lot of bloody scenes. There is also a lot of erotic scenes, not only heterosexual. Interesting and exciting story is a big plus. But the biggest advantage are wonderful costumes.

Sesja była luźno inspirowana serialem, więc nie odtwarzałam dosłownie żadnej postaci. Zależało mi bardziej na oddaniu klimatu grozy, krwawych elementach z dodatkiem wiktoriańskiego rysu. Zdecydowałam się na dwie stylizacje bazujące na wspólnych elementach. Wspólne dla obu są: czerwona spódnica na turniurze wraz z odpowiednią halką oraz czarna szyfonowa bluzka ze zdobionym przodem oraz modelujący odpowiednio sylwetkę gorset pod ubraniem.
Photoshoot was 'inspired by' series so I didn`t make cosplay. I chose to focus on the horror atmosphere instead. In bloody and victorian way. I decided to take two outfits with few common parts, numely: red skirt, bustle, petticoat, chiffon blouse and of course corset under that.

In the first outfit I added: a matching red jacket, mitens gloves, jevellery (oryginal vintage chocer) and proper hairstyle. The resulting character is a bored aristocrate who is experimenting with the spiritual world. Things that she (me) discovered were overwhelming. In fact I was partially inspired by the main character of the series - Vanessa Ives.

In the socond outfit I became a horror chambermade, who either killed somebody or witnessed something unspeakable. Maybe she cleans the mess created by her masters` bloody actions? Or, like Sweeney Todd, uses her victims for culinary purposes? While the story may be complex, the outfit is rather simple. I replaced the jacket with a victorian apron I made some time ago. I took off all the jewellery and gloves, as well as removed the flower from my hair. Insted I put on a white bonnet. The last missing piece was a big knife. .
